TOP TEN NOSTALGIC HORRORS - Also includes clips of whatever managed to get it on this list.ġ0. So, of course, the only proper thing to down is to take you all on a trip down childhood-trauma lane as we explore my picks for the Top Ten Nostalgic Horrors!Īnd to douse your hopes now, Audrey 2 will not be on this list.

From the primal phobia of whatever is lurking in the dark, to more specific, fantastic fears like monster clowns, evil witches, and inanimate objects that had no business opening their mouths and speaking to us (yes, I'm looking at YOU Audrey 2). Let's face it, folks: we endured A LOT of scary shit in our younger years. Of course, to find the cause of this phenomenon, one needs to look no further back than the movies and TV shows of yesteryear. There's just something about that rush of adrenaline and sharing the horror with friends that make us want more of it, even as we slowly tear through bogeyman-repellent nightlight bulbs like cheap tissue.

There is a long-standing hypothesis that says, deep down, we all love being scared out of our minds, especially in large groups. People love commenting on it, sharing with me their own traumatizing experiences with that show - how King Ramses haunted their dreams, how high they jumped during THAT moment from the Scwick episode, and oh dear, sweet, merciful God, why did you let me look at that fetus-trumpet-thing from Perfect?

The most popular journal I've posted here so far has got to be the Top Ten Scariest Episodes of Courage the Cowardly Dog. Well, I haven't been posting quite as often I'd like to, but it's still better than only posting an entry a year.
